Ring Bologna on a 22?
« on: August 24, 2017, 07:05:10 PM »
Has anyone tried ring bologna on a kettle? I have seen Malcolm Reed do smoked bologna so why not attempt it on a kettle? LOL
 Also considering Bloomin' Garlic Spam.
Any tips or recipes?

Why not try it?

When I lived in New Jersey, albeit only for a few years, I fell in love with grilled Taylor Ham/Case Pork Roll. You should be able to find it in Pittsburgh (although I could rarely find it down in Philly).

Any tips? Usually this kind of meat has a lot of fat in it (which is why it tastes good).

1) So if you have to do direct, watch it like a hawk or it will burn in a matter of seconds. Otherwise, hot kettle, indirect. You could even put "beans in the basement" to catch the drippings but there won't be a whole lot

2) Don't cut it super thin...it will curl up on you. I have found somewhere between 1/4"-1/2" is pretty good. But again...if you have a ring...try different thicknesses and see what you like.

Good luck!

I typically like to smoke bologna and SPAM.  Make a few shallow incisions, soak in a 50-50% mixture of your favorite sauce and apple cider vinegar for an hour or two and baste the bologna every once in a while. 

The SPAM just gets rub.

That looks great.  I just threw the ring on. Didn't think to take casing off and soak it.
Definitely trying this for next cook.
